Forward missed calls on an iPhone

The Call Forwarding switch in your iPhone’s Settings sends every call away, so your phone never rings. You want missed calls only, so use your carrier’s code in the Phone app instead. It takes one minute.

  1. Open the Phone app and tap Keypad.
  2. Dial the code for your carrier below and tap the green Call button.
  3. Wait for the confirmation, then hang up.

Verizon

*715615550123Forwards calls you don’t answer or when you’re busy

Turn off: *73

AT&T, T-Mobile, Cricket, Metro and most others

Turn it on

Open your phone’s keypad (the same screen you use to dial a number). Dial each code below and press Call. You’ll see or hear a short “registration successful” message. Do all three so she catches every call you miss.

**61*5615550123#When you don’t answer**67*5615550123#When you’re on another call**62*5615550123#When your phone is off or has no signal

Want more rings before she answers?

Add the number of seconds (5 to 30) at the end. This one waits 25 seconds:

**61*5615550123**25#Rings 25 seconds, then she answers

Turn it off

Dial these to send missed calls back to your old voicemail:

##61#No answer##67#Busy##62#Unreachable##002#Turns off all forwarding at once on most phones

Test it

Ask a friend to call your number and don’t answer. After a few rings she should pick up in your business’s name. You’ll see the call in your app a minute later.
